Laughing with you, this was the closest article that I could find, that would work to start a survival in todays world thread.

Gardening is a good idea.

Raising your own meat is an even better idea.

The best pork that I have ever grown, was fed on goats milk soaked barley and other grains.

It did not taste like this stuff from the store.

If they lock all the stores, how long will you be able to survive.

Gardens in NW Arizona are rare, so we talk about them.

We could go a few weeks, no problem. And we have friends who have farms for meat and milk.

We need supplies of legacy non hybrid seeds since in the case of extreme war and economic disruptions, the companies that make the hybrid, non reproducing plants will no longer be fuctioning. Folks will have to carry some seeds over from year to year.
